Local group aids abused animals in Lawrence County
Lawrence County Animal Relief Fund supporting caregivers and rescue animals has donated 2000 to 3000 this year to veterinary care and food. Marilyn Cook notes funds aided a woman who cared for 22 mixed breed dogs and describes dogs ages two and younger, many lacking people skills, some placed in adoptive homes. A foster caregiver in Wear Woof of Pittsburgh helped group raise funds after a lost kitten fund. Dr Joseph Raught provided veterinary care. Two abused cats required extensive care with community donations funding their treatment.
